I for one do not condone this sort of behavior and therefore cannot look the

Hexagram 4 Youthful Ignorance
The changing line: 6 at the beginning
The ignorant man must be dealt with severely
and encouraged to open his mind
if his ignorance is to be dispelled.
Some guilt
if you are too firm for too long
You must discipline yourself if you wish to become adept. But this discipline
must arise from your own need, at your own volition. Do not place yourself
under the inflexible strictures of an existing system of discipline. retain
the freedom of innocence in choosing the means of your own self-discipline.
